Twitch was a maleRodian who was the only alien duelist in the Taris dueling ring at the time of the destruction of Taris. He was thought to be mentally unstable, but it did not stop him from becoming the dueling champion of Taris after he defeated the former champion, Marl. His psychotic personality led to several exciting matches, and his popularity soared, but it still paled in comparison to that of Bendak Starkiller.

Twitch was spontaneous and dynamic in his mannerisms, but was not always one for lucid conversations. Because of his nonsensical speech and eccentric behavior, he was widely regarded by the public as mentally unhinged. Despite this, many of his audience were thrilled by his wild, unpredictable style and rapid reflexes with his blasters. As a new and younger champion, replacing the elderly Marl, Twitch was respected for his expert performance, crazy or not. Even so, he was not as skilled as Bendak Starkiller, the legendary former champion who only fought death matches, and Gerlon Two-Fingers thought that not even Twitch was insane enough to challenge Bendak.
